Where operators meet institutional capital.
Capital markets sits at the center of every Elephant mandate. Whether the goal is a new warehouse facility, a forward-flow program, or a structured portfolio sale, we bring an institutional rolodex and a structuring toolkit that operators rarely build in-house.
Three advisory disciplines, one team.
Debt Placement
Sourcing senior, mezzanine, and structured debt — warehouse facilities, term loans, revolvers, and committed credit lines — across our network of banks, private-credit funds, and family offices.
Structured Finance Advisory
Structuring guidance for first-time and repeat issuers — facility sizing, advance rates, covenants, eligibility criteria, and waterfall mechanics. We make the term sheet a deal closes on, not the one it stalls on.
Forward Flow & Whole Loan
Building and running programmatic loan-sale programs — buyer selection, pricing benchmarks, eligibility, and ongoing program management with banks, private-credit funds, and family offices.
How We WorkFrom mandate to close, in four steps.
Every Elephant mandate runs the same disciplined process. Senior partner-led, with a clear timeline, a defined buyer universe, and a single point of contact through close.
Diagnose
We dig into your business, asset class, and capital stack. Our output: a written view on what's financeable, by whom, and at what terms.
Position
We build the materials, model, and data tape that institutional capital needs to underwrite — shaped by what we know each lender will ask.
Source
We run a focused, multi-party process across the right buyer universe. Not the longest list — the right one.
Close
We negotiate the term sheet, drive legal, and stay on the line through funding. Our job ends at first draw, not at LOI.
An institutional rolodex maintained, not rented.
Elephant's senior team has spent careers inside banks, credit funds, and operating platforms. The relationships are first-name and current — not contact-list deep.
Regional & Community Banks
Warehouse and bilateral facilities — our deepest banking network across U.S. specialty finance.
Private Credit
Direct lenders and credit funds underwriting senior, unitranche, mezzanine, and structured credit at scale.
Family Offices
Single and multi-family offices investing in senior, mezzanine, and equity co-invest opportunities.
Asset Managers & Hedge Funds
Opportunistic structured credit, structured warehouse, and selective whole-loan capital across the credit spectrum.
